Pigeon Forge

Pigeon Forge here we come! In April we went to Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg! Poppi is on the board for the National Foundation to Protect Americas Eagles, we try to go with him when they have their yearly board meetings.... We left on a Friday morning we first headed to see Auntie Elizabeth in Knoxville! While we were there we saw her roomies and our friend Catherine (P.S. she got engaged the next day!! CONGRATS!)! Then we headed to our condo in Pigeon Forge! The first night we all ate at Johnny Corino's. Then Brent, Elizabeth and I went to ride go-karts! While we did that Mimi and Poppi took Diane to the condo and let her "swim" (which means she put her floaties on and swam in the jacuzzi tub)! The next day while Poppi went to his meeting the rest of us went shopping!! Sunday we all (minus Elizabeth) spent the day in Gatlinburg going to all the neat shops and eating at Bubba Gump (from the movie Forrest Gump)! Oh we also spent half the day looking at a time share...lets just say it's not fun with a TWO year old!!! Though she was VERY good!! Then there was Monday! We spent the entire day at Dollywood! First we watched the bird show! Then we went and Diane, Mommy, and Daddy went on some rides! After our fun day at Dollywood we went and had an our picture then went and ate at the Apple Barn before heading home!



On our way to Pigeon Forge!

Showing off her Hello Kitty sticker! She wouldn't take it off for like an hour!

Diane decided that Uncle Jeff needs this at his Golf Center!
Oh and if you didn't know it's a trash can!

Ripley's Believe It Or Not..... the big marble ball!

Bubba Gump....... Come on!

Our last day! Getting ready to go to Dollywood!

I can't remember what this is called but I think it is found in Africa..maybe?!

Red Tail Hawk

This is a golden eagle!

This bald eagle was shot and they had to amputate his wing!

She was the same size! I thought it was so CUTE!

She wasn't so sure about the carousel

She liked the "tea party" aka lemon twist, but said daddy went too fast!

She rode the "duckies" twice! Though she wouldn't touch ANYTHING!!

She loved driving the old cars with Daddy! I think this was her favorite!!

We had to stop at EVERY water fall or fountain we came too!

Rocking with Poppi and Daddy at the Apple Wood Barn!

She loves to drive! She rode this 3 or 4 times right before we left town!
